Abstract

Nearly two thirds of 200 male hypertensive veterans surveyed in Philadelphia admitted to past ingestion of illicit alcoholic beverages (moonshine), many drinking it recently, and in the North. They were more likely to be black and have gout than those denying moonshine use. But we did not detect unequivocally high bodily lead burden in a small subsample.
